Abstract:Globally a significant burden of tuberculosis (TB) is faced, which is difficult to eradicate due to patients' non‐adherence, and drug‐resistant strains that are spreading at an alarming rate. Novel approaches are required to improve diagnosis and treatment. Metallic nanoparticles (MNPs) have demonstrated potential as sensor probes and in combination therapy, which combines MNPs with antimycobacterial drugs to develop new treatment and theranostic approaches. To strengthen the theoretical foundation toward the … Show more
